US ban on Canadian alcohol and dairy takes effect as trade war drags on
A US ban on several Canadian imports, including alcohol, dairy and motorcycles, has come into effect as a trade war between the two neighbours drags on.
A US trade ban on Canadian alcohol, dairy, and motorcycles took effect on Tuesday, as a trade war between the two nations continues. This action by the Trump administration is a response to Canada's implementation of tariffs on US goods earlier this month after trade talks broke down. Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that the impact of the import bans on Canada's economy is "modest."
However, the bans will affect nearly C$1 billion ($710 million) worth of Canadian liquor exports to the US, and motorcycle exports, though limited. Canadian Prime Minister Carney noted that the bans are "relatively modest measures," but will still hurt certain businesses. US liquor producers and economists have expressed concern over the consequences for the industry and the overall trade relationship between the two countries.
